I loved every minute of it. I was never bored and always intrigued. I loved how the goddess was portrayed, too. Thank you for sharing this, both of you.

That was great! Colorful and full of imagination and adventure. Made me feel like a kid watching Sinbad again.

So glad you liked it. We made this film for very little money.
Ishtar, the goddess, represented both war and love, as I understand it. Sort of a dual personality. I chose to show her tender side. Liz who played Ishtar and her masked twin sister also made the clothes.
Liking it to the Sinbad movies is very to the point, as Ray Harryhausen is a great influence on me. Probably shows.
